The National Academy of Governance (国家行政学院), is an external name of the Central Party School of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Historically, it was a public administration academy for middle and senior government officials in China. The academy was located in Beijing and affiliated with the State Council.

"One institution with two names" is a bureaucratic arrangement in the Chinese government wherein a government agency exists in name only, and its functions are in practice performed by another agency or a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organization, so that in effect one institution has two or more governmental brands or trade names to use selectively for political, historical, or bureaucratic reasons. This type of arrangement was historically common until the mid-1980s, but has been extensively revived by reforms which began in 2017.
